News : The Amenta announce release date for new album, headlining our 5th Birthday show!

By on January 29, 2013

On March 22nd, Sydney’s oh-so brilliant The Amenta will release their new full length album Flesh Is Heir. It’s the first full length to be written by the current lineup, as well as be completely recorded and mixed by the band.

We’ve been lucky enough to hear the album, and fans will definitely not be disappointing. It’s a much more organic sounding The Amenta, with less harsh noise but more empty space and eeriness, not to mention what are easily some of their best vocal moments to date. Expect a full review up on the site very soon.

“Lyrically the album deals with the two warring sides of the human psyche:
The Obliterate (which desires to be subsumed and therefore free) and the
Realist (which embraces pain as a life truth).”

The album also marks the first signing for Melbourne based metal label EVP Recordings, exclusively distributed in Australia by Rocket Distribution. Oh, and did we mention they’re headlining our 5th Birthday show the day after the album is released?
